Researchers are conducting a multi-center, global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2b trial to evaluate the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of IMVT-1402 in adults with Graves' disease who remain hyperthyroid despite antithyroid drug treatment. The study focuses on participants aged 18 to 75 years who have this diagnosis and are still experiencing hyperthyroidism. Participants will receive either IMVT-1402 or a placebo for 26 weeks. The study includes two dosing regimens of IMVT-1402: Dose 1 administered for 26 weeks and Dose 2 also administered for 26 weeks. The placebo group will receive treatment for the same duration. The treatments are given as drugs, and the study is designed to keep both participants and researchers unaware of which treatment is assigned. During the study, researchers will monitor participants to see how many achieve normal thyroid function (euthyroid) and remain off antithyroid drugs by Week 26. Participants will be assessed regularly to evaluate safety, tolerability, and treatment effects. The involvement includes following the assigned treatment and attending scheduled visits for evaluations. The total participation time corresponds with the 26-week treatment period.

Researchers are investigating whether the medicine vicadrostat, when taken together with empagliflozin, can lower the risk of heart-related problems in adults who have type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease but no history of heart failure. This study is a Phase III trial that compares the effects of vicadrostat plus empagliflozin to a placebo plus empagliflozin in people with these conditions. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups: one group takes vicadrostat and empagliflozin tablets, and the other group takes placebo tablets that look like vicadrostat along with empagliflozin. All participants take one tablet daily for a period ranging from two and a half years up to four years and three months. Throughout the study, participants continue their usual medications for diabetes, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease. During up to 51 months of participation, participants visit the study site regularly where doctors collect health information and blood samples. Researchers track when participants experience cardiovascular events such as heart-related deaths or heart failure events. The study also monitors participants’ overall health and any side effects they may experience to assess the safety and effects of the treatments.
